My Killing President

Chapter 681 Moving

For the coming few days, Annabelle and Alistair's wedding was gaining quite the attention. However, all

the details regarding the wedding was kept confidential. The venue and the guest list were not

disclosed.

Even so, the wedding continued to create a hype. Alistair and Annabelle's wedding updates were the

reporters' focus.

When Kaleb Hua saw the invitation card, he couldn't describe his feelings.

It didn't matter whether Annabelle was his actual daughter or not. He had already treated the woman

like his own daughter. That piece of paper proof wasn't important.

He didn't know when it started. But ever since the idea emerged, he had come to that conclusion.

Now that he received the invitation to Annabelle and Alistair's wedding, he had decided to call off his

decision to move to New Zealand.

At that time, Hua walked over and he saw Kaleb Hua kept looking at the invitation card. The man

couldn't suppress his excitement and he spoke, "Brother Kaleb, I have a news to tell you!"

When Kaleb Hua heard that, he raised his head, "What is it?"

Hua didn't explain and he simply passed him a file.

Kaleb Hua was puzzled but he opened it anyway.

It was a DNA test.

And the result showed a ninety-nine percent match!

"This is…"

"This is the DNA test of yours and Miss Xia!" Hua said. The man was so happy for Kaleb Hua.

When Kaleb Hua looked at it, his eyes widened. He knew what the test result meant.

In other words, they were father and daughter!!!

The moment he learnt of that news, his heart leapt in joy. He just couldn't suppress his elation.

Getting a confirmation for his doubt made all the difference.

The man had spent most of his years all alone and now, all of a sudden he got a daughter!

However, he managed to calm down and looked at Hua, "How did you get this?"

When Hua heard that, the smile on his face subsided, "Brother Kaleb, sorry. Miss Xia had stayed in the

mansion before. After she left, I found her hair to do the test… I know this isn't right, but I want to let

you know the outcome!" Hua said sincerely.

Kaleb Hua knew that the man did that for his sake.

He didn't want to do the test because he was afraid to get the unwanted result.

Now that he finally learnt of the truth, he was just overwhelmed!

How could he find fault with Hua?

As he looked at the DNA test, all kinds of thought flashed in his mind. After finally calling himself down,

he said, "Do not let anyone know about this!"

"Why?" Hua asked perturbedly.

"If the others know that Miss Xia is your daughter, those shareholders in the company wouldn't

pressure you anymore. They were doing that because you didn't have an heir!" Hua said.

"That isn't a good reason. She has her own life and I could see that she was satisfied. Who knows if

she could accept me, or that she would blame me?" Kaleb Hua said.

The man had wronged Dawson Xiao in the past and he didn't even know about Annabelle's existence.

How could he step forward to ask anything from her now?

He couldn't bear to take the risk.

He would rather not tell her anything then having her distancing herself away from him.

Hua stood there and watched as the man struggled. He wouldn't be able to comprehend his worry but

he could apprehend his concern. If he was placed in the same shoe, he might not be able to accept it

as well.

"What if Miss Xia can accept it and she wouldn't blame you? After all, what happened was not your

choice either. Miss Xia knew about that!" Hua tried to persuade the man. He was trying to give him

hope.

"She is a strong-willed person and she has her own consideration about that. But as for how much I

know her, I do not think she would accept it easily!" Kaleb Hua knew that well. After all, Annabelle took

after Dawson Xiao.

Hua was silent for a while, "Do we just leave things be like that?"

Now that they finally knew the truth, nothing changed. They felt powerless not being able to do

anything.

"Let's just let things be for now!" Kaleb Hua said helplessly. The man wanted to be reconciled with his

own flesh and blood as well. But what right did he have?

Why should Annabelle forgive and accept the person that dumped her mother and didn't even know

about her existence…?

He was a failure as a father.

He couldn't forgive himself.

Hua looked at Kaleb Hua and he felt pitiful and heartbroken.

Although the man before him had dominated the mobsters and even successfully converted himself to

legal businesses, leaving a legacy and legend to himself, he experienced the loneliness and

helplessness others could never imagine.

Previously he knew nothing and it made sense for him to not do anything. But now that he learnt of the

truth, he couldn't do anything and it felt different…

Only a strong person could handle that feeling.

Hua didn't know what to say.

At that time, Kaleb Hua stared at the DNA test. Although he couldn't tell her anything, he could

continue to treat her as best as he could.

"What do you think I should prepare for the wedding gift?" Kaleb Hua asked suddenly and his tone was

cheerful.

"Hmm… I am not sure. If we give something too available, others might misunderstand. If we give

something too light, we wouldn't be able to show our sincerity!" Hua said.

That was quite the headache.

Kaleb Hua nodded, "What a tough question!"

At that time, Hua recalled something all of a sudden, "By the way, I heard that Miss Xia has twenty

percent of Yun Rui's share and the Xia Group gave her another twenty percent of their company shares

as dowry!" Hua said. When Kaleb Hua heard that, he was stunned.

"What a surprise that the Xia husband and wife treated her so well!" Kaleb Hua said smilingly and his

lips curled up in contentment. If that was the case, it was obvious that the family had protected

Annabelle well and they brought her up with care and love.

Hua nodded in agreement.

"What if I transfer Rong Le Group's shares for her as well? What do you think of twenty percent?"

Kaleb Hua asked.

"I don't think that is appropriate!" Hua said, "The two of you are unrelated. If you were to give her so

much, you might cause suspicion. And I don't think the Xia would accept it!"

Maybe Kaleb Hua was just too excited and he haven't been considering it properly, "Then, what do you

think we should do?"

"After all, all of these belongs to Miss Xia and I don't see a need to hurry. Let just follow the flow for

now. I believe Miss Xia wouldn't mind about these material things!" Hua said.

Kaleb Hua nodded agreeably, "You are right!"

Annabelle wasn't a person like that. Money and materials were just a bonus in life.

"Let me think about it properly…" Kaleb Hua said.

Hua stood there and looked at the man. Although he couldn't do or say anything, it was obvious that he

was satisfied.

It was truly an elating news and he was happy for Kaleb Hua as well.

For the coming days, Alistair had been busy arranging the wedding. He didn't have time to go back to

the Mu House at all.

As for Nancy, she didn't have the chance to meet him at all.

With the approaching wedding ceremony, Nancy felt an increasing tension and pressure.

One day, Nancy went to Alistair's office.

Alistair hadn't been expecting her visit. He raised his gaze and looked at her, "Yes? Why the sudden

visit?"

"Did you tell Antonio Lu anything?" Nancy asked.

Alistair was stunned. After that he lowered the documents on his hand, "What are you trying to say?"

"How can you tell Xiao-an that he got together with me because of money!"

"Did he tell you that?"

"Isn't that the case?" Nancy asked back.

Alistair smiled and didn't explain anything. He simply looked at her and said, "Since you already have

an answer, why bother asking me?"

"Why did you say that?" Nancy wouldn't let him off. She was just annoyed with Alistair's attitude.

At that time, Alistair raised his gaze and looked at her intently, "Did he tell you that he was the one that

looked for me?"

Nancy was stunned and her gaze was diffident. She wasn't sure at all and she simply came up with

that as an excuse to visit him.

"So what? You shouldn't have said that!" Nancy said. She was throwing her temper and acting

irrationally.

"Nancy, do you know how childish you are right now??" Alistair asked and he was annoyed.

Nancy was speechless and didn't know what to say. She looked at Alistair and she was upset.

However, she didn't dare to show it in front of him.

"Antonio isn't a person like that. I hope that you won't say something like that in the future!" Nancy said.

"Okay!"

Alistair didn't admit but he couldn't be bothered to explain. The man simply agreed to her to end the

conversation.

As for the truth, he shall leave it to her own discernment.

When Nancy saw that he answered so hastily, she knew that he wasn't interested to talk. Therefore,

she turned around to leave.

"But do let me give you a word of reminder, if you are really serious about the relationship, you should

get to know him better first!" Alistair hinted her.

Nancy's steps paused for a little. She didn't even turn her head and walked out.

Alistair sat inside and watched as she left. The man's eyebrows knitted closely as he caught on what

was going on in her mind.

……

Nancy was eating with Antonio Lu.

The man looked at her and asked, "What's wrong? You look troubled!"

Nancy looked back at him and shook her head. After that, she continued to eat, "It's nothing!"

"Are you tired?"

"I'm fine!"

"Let me send you back to get some rest after lunch!"

"Okay!" Nancy answered with nod.

"Are you still staying in the Mu House?" Antonio Lu asked.

Nancy nodded, "Yeah!"

"Do you plan to keep staying there?" Antonio Lu looked at her and asked.

Nancy looked back at him and answered seriously, "If not?"

"You should move out. It isn't convenient for you to keep staying there!" Antonio Lu said.

Nancy looked at Antonio Lu and she was stunned. Although she mentioned that to Alistair when she

was upset, she didn't really mean it. But now…

"Don't misunderstand. I happened to have an empty apartment. You can stay there for the time being!"

Antonio Lu and stared.

"But…"

"You don't want to move?"

"No…"

"Then it is decided!" Antonio Lu decided for her.

Nancy blinked her long eyelashes and pondered for a while. Maybe he would be more worried about

her after she moved out!

As she thought about that, she nodded, "All right, then I shall trouble you with that!"

When Antonio Lu got her approval, he smiled, "No trouble at all. I am happy that you decided this way.

Don't worry, I will take good care of you!" Antonio Lu help Nancy's hand.

Nancy looked at him and nodded disinterestedly.

After the lunch, Antonio Lu sent Nancy back home.

To be exact, he went to help Nancy pack her stuff and move.

After Nancy was done packing, she bid the grandmother goodbye, "Grandma, thank you for taking care

of me all these while. I will be moving out today!"

"Didn't you have a good time staying here? Why are you moving out so suddenly?"

"It isn't convenient for me to stay here after all. And I do not wish to disrupt your lives!"

"I said that you should just treat this like your own house. Your father had entrusted you to Alistair and

we are more than happy to take care of you!"

"Grandma, I appreciate your kind gesture. But I have made up my mind!" Nancy said.

Maybe she could make a difference after moving out!

When the grandmother saw that Nancy was determined, she didn't know what to say.

Right after Nancy wanted to leave with her luggage, Alistair and Annabelle came in from outside.

The two of them were holding hands and they seemed so sweet and happy together.

It was infuriating to see how close and lovey-dovey they were.

Right after Alistair walked inside, he saw Nancy carrying her luggage. The man's sharp gaze swept on

her, "Where are you going?" He asked.

"Nancy said she is moving out!" The grandmother answered.

Alistair stared in Nancy's eyes, "Are you moving in together with Antonio Lu?" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

When he came in, he saw Antonio Lu's car waiting outside.

Nancy didn't expect him to ask that question. However, she decided to go with the flow, "Yeah, that's

right!"

Alistair was surprised. Nancy's decision was too hasty.

Alistair stood there and examined her expression, "Have you made up your mind?"

"I've already packed all of my stuffs!"

"Do you need me to send you over?"

Nancy, "…"

She felt that her heart sank. Did he not care at all?

Nancy's lips curled up, "There's no need, Antonio is waiting for me outside!"

"Okay, take care of yourself!" He said.

Nancy, "… I will!"

When she saw that Alistair wasn't saying anything, she added, "See you!"

After saying that, she pulled her small luggage and walked outside.

After she left, Annabelle looked at Alistair and asked, "Is this really all right?"

"Since she wanted to do that, why not we just let her be. She isn't a child anymore and she should be

responsible with her own life. Since she wanted it, let's just let her be!" Alistair said nonchalantly. She

wouldn't grow up without getting her lesson.

He should let her see for herself what kind of person Antonio Lu was. Otherwise, she would just

complain at everything he says since since Alistair said that, Annabelle didn't interfere further. The man

had the right to do however he pleases about Nancy. Since he had made up his mind, they should just

follow the flow.

"All right, now that the two of you finally come back, tell grandma more about your wedding

preparation!" The grandmother asked. She wasn't disturbed by Nancy's move at all and all of her

attention was on her grandchildren's wedding.

When Annabelle heard her question, she smiled, "Everything is going smoothly! Don't worry about it,

grandma!"

"Just leave everything to Alistair. Now that you are pregnant, just focus in keeping your body healthy!"

Annabelle smiled gently, "Don't worry, I will definitely do that…"

Antonio Lu was a stranger to the Mu family and he wasn't in a friendly relationship with Alistair. In order

to avoid a confrontation, he held back from going inside. The moment he saw Nancy coming out, he

was elated. He opened the car door and went to receive her.

"How was it?" Antonio Lu asked. He was afraid that she might change her mind.

"All of my stuffs are here!" Nancy said. She looked at her luggage and there wasn't much things inside.

Antonio Lu looked at her luggage and his lips curled up, "Let's get in the car, I'll send you over!"

As he said that, he helped Nancy to take over her luggage and put it in the back seat. The man opened

the door gentlemanly for Nancy.

Nancy smiled indifferently and got in the car.

Antonio Lu and drove towards the apartment.

On their way there, Nancy did not speak at all. Antonio Lu looked at her through the rearview mirror,

"What's wrong? Are you upset?"

"It's not that. I've been staying there for so long and I feel heavy hearted!"

"It is only normal to have some emotional attachment after staying there for so long. Don't worry, I will

take good care of you!"

"Okay!" Nancy nodded and tried her best to ignore the disappointment, also the heartbreaking words in

her mind.

Soon after, they reached Antonio Lu's apartment. Nancy got down the car and Antonio Lu helped her

with the luggage. The two of them went upstairs.

It was on the twelfth floor. After the door was opened, Antonio Lu took the lead and walked in front.

"I bought this some time ago and it is fully furnished. I always have someone to clean it up from time to

time. You can stay here restfully!"

Nancy followed inside and checked out the place. It was facing the morning sun and it was a

comfortable place.

"Thank you!" Nancy nodded.

Antonio Lu helped to bring her luggage inside the master room, "This is the master room. The bed

sheets are all new and clean!"

Nancy looked around. She was pleased to see that the place was very clean. She nodded at the man,

"Thank you!"

"You don't have to. Don't forget that I am your boyfriend. Your matters are my matters. I am thankful

that you trust me enough to move in!" After saying that, Antonio Lu walked forward and wrapped his

arms around her waist. He lowered his head slowly and wanted to kiss her…

Nancy looked at him and she knew what he wanted to do. However, she just didn't know what she

should do at that moment. It would be awkward if she were to reject his direct approach.

When their lips almost touched, his phone rang.

It interrupted them. Nancy took the chance and struggled off his hug, "You have a call. I'll go check out

the toilet!" After saying that, she walked around him and got into the toilet.

Antonio Lu was a little disappointed. After she walked inside, he took out his phone. The moment he

saw the caller ID, his eyebrows furrowed deeply. He took his phone and went to a corner to answer.

"Hello…"

"I got it. I am thinking of a way for the cash flow. Don't rush me anymore, I will definitely come up with

something…"

"Give me another five days and I will make sure to get you the money…"

Nancy was in the toilet as she looked in her own reflection. She recalled that earlier episode between

her and Antonio Lu… Was that what she wanted?

Although the two of them were in a relationship, the most they did was just hugs. Now that they moved

in together, it is only normal for their relationship to take the next step. However, the woman's every

thought was telling her that this wasn't what she wanted!

She got together with Antonio Lu for the sake of frustrating Alistair. Everything that happened after that,

moving here was just unexpected and unplanned.

She had been too impulsive!

She looked in the mirror and her thoughts were jumbled up…

*Knock knock*

At that time, Antonio Lu knocked on the door and asked, "Nancy, are you all right?"

"Oh, almost done!" Nancy answered. She drew a deep breath and opened the door.

"You have been inside for such a long time, I even thought something happened to you!" Antonio Lu

said worriedly.

Nancy simply looked at him and smiled, "Umm, Xiao-an, I am tired and I want to rest now. You…"

Antonio Lu knew what she meant and he nodded with a smile, "Sure. It's getting late now and you

should rest earlier. I should head back as well!"

"Okay!" Nancy answered with a smile.

"Have a good rest after your shower!"

"Okay!" Nancy nodded again.

Before leaving, Antonio Lu walked closer and kissed her forehead.

That kiss reminded Nancy that she had kissed Antonio Lu like that in purpose in front of Alistair…

So that was how it felt being kissed by someone she didn't like!

Nancy sent him to the door, "Good night!"

"Good night!"

After seeing Antonio Lu left, Nancy shut the door.

She could finally feel relieved after the man left.

She got together with him just for the sake of frustrating Alistair. But now, she was just feeling an

unnamed pressure.

As Antonio Lu got more serious, she felt more pressured.

Nancy looked around the spacious room. It wasn't nearly as big and as lavish as the Mu House, just a

simple three bedrooms and two living rooms modern apartment. However, none of those matter at all.

The most important thing was that the person she wanted to see wasn't there…

The surrounding and atmosphere weren't what she was familiar with.

She went back to the bedroom and sat on the bed. As she looked around the place, and no matter how

much she tried to deny it, she regretted. She had completely regretted her actions of moving out!
